Compact and powerful finder and guide scope

Large aperture, little focal length - guiding stars everywhere, even far away from the Milky Way!

As a finder, the optics offer between 5.3° and 5.8° when combined with our crosshair eyepieces. That´s enough for a good overview. By using eyepieces without reticle, you get a super wide angle telescope for comets and the band of the Milky Way with its star clouds and diffuse nebulae.

Features:

60 mm aperture, 240 mm focal length, focal ratio f:4

non rotating helical focuser for precise focusing. If optimal sharpness is reached, just tighten the locking screw. The star remains exactly on its position without tilting or shifting.

1.25" connection with brass compression ring and T2-thread

for using an eyepiece, you need the adapter TST2-1-T2s or the extension tube TSVF1

Standard quick release finder interface (for Vixen, Celestron, Skywatcher, GSO and many others).

Use of autoguiders with 1.25" housing, such as ASI120MINI or Lodestar:

The focus is between 9 mm and 19 mm behind the 1.25" port. So the sensor would be too far inside. We simply recommend a good 1.25" adapter that screws onto the T2 thread. Suitable adapters are linked. Then the camera can be mounted easily, without focus problems.

Many cameras, like the ZWO MINI Guider, come with a 1.25" extension. With this you can also focus well. The extension should be turned out completely. However, you must not insert the camera completely.

Practical tip from Teleskop-Service:

With the linked eyepiece TSIR20 you only get a sharp image if you first focus the crosshair for your eye, then insert the eyepiece into the TSL60D, but keep a distance of about 4-5 mm, and then focus with the finder/guide scope. To achieve the correct distance, a locking ring is helpful; the 1z counter is linked in the accessory and with a thickness of 5 mm can simply be pushed to the end of the barrel before it is clamped.

Guiding/Finder scope TSL60D

Adjustable finder holder

Practical tip TS: Adapting the M-Gen to the TSL60D:

The M-Gen is one of the most popular stand-alone auto guiders on the market. Combined with the TSL60D, it allows guiding telescopes with up to approx. 300 mm aperture. Many photographers prefer a screwed connection of the guider to the scope (see picture).

- M-Gen back focus: 7 mm (T2 thread to sensor)
- TSL60D focus position: 16 mm ... 26 mm behind the T-thread
- To achieve an optimal position, we recommend the 15 mm T2 extension TST2V15.

Using the TSL60D as finder - adaptation of eyepieces:

Of course the TSL60D can also be used as a finder with 60 mm aperture. To adapt the distance between the 1.25" receptactle and the focal plane, we recommend an extension: This can be the TSVF1 which is simply screwed into the eyepiece´s filter thread.

"Gutes Leitrohr!"

Excellent guider/finder.

Its light, but still sturdy. The focuser is a joy to use, its stiff but not too stiff, i dont bother with locking the focuser as i dont think it has ever slipped. With an eyepiece (and an extension tube to reach focus) it turns into a high powered finder. I would buy this product again.

"einfach zu justierendes Leitrohr, der Helical Auszug erleichtert das Fokussieren sehr"

"Ich verwende den Sucher auf einem neuen Schuh der zu dem Sucherleitrohr dazu empfohlen wurde. Ich bin sowohl vom Sucherleitrohr als auch dem Schuh begeistert. Die Poljustage mittels ASI 120C und Sharpecap funktionieren grandios schnell und auch das Guiding findet zahllose Sterne mit dem Leitrohr. Tolles Produkt zu einem fairen Preis."
